Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of power electronics, and particularly to an adjustable wide-adaptation MOSFET turn-off gate drive circuit and a drive method. Background Art
[0002] During the turn-off process of a power MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor), it is necessary to convert the turn-off digital signal into a turn-off analog signal suitable for the power device through gate drive and apply it between the gate and source (hereinafter referred to as "gate-source") of the power MOSFET to complete the turn-off action. During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET, there is a contradiction between the voltage overshoot caused by the rising drain-source (hereinafter referred to as "drain-source") voltage and the turn-off loss. It is necessary to adjust the gate signal trajectory to change the drain-source side voltage and current trajectory so that the power MOSFET can be applied to the limit and meet the requirements of power electronic devices.
[0003] Currently, most existing drive circuits use a two-level turn-off method in cooperation with a gate resistor to adjust the voltage and current trajectory of the power MOSFET device during the turn-off process. It is impossible to finely and continuously regulate the gate voltage during the turn-off process, and it is impossible to separately regulate the drain-source side voltage and current trajectory of the power MOSFET. It is difficult to simultaneously meet the goals of low voltage overshoot and low turn-off loss during the turn-off process, and it is difficult to meet the high power density requirements of power electronic devices.

[0023] Further, the current mirror module (01) is configured to copy the current i1 in the path connected to the parameter configuration module (02) to the line connected to the maintenance module (03) during the pre-turn-off stage, form the current i2, and boost the voltage at the node net2 during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), so that the fifth NMOS transistor (MN5) in the conduction module (04) establishes a channel during the pre-turn-off stage, and further enables the conduction module (04) to operate.

[0032] A method for generating a current i1 in the line where the first NMOS transistor (MN1) is located during the pre-turn-off stage of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled according to the first turn-off enable signal (Vctrl1);
[0033] A method for, according to the current i2 copied by the current mirror module (01) during the pre-turn-off stage, first raising the voltage at node net3, then raising the voltage at node net4 during the pre-turn-off stage of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled. Subsequently, the voltage at node net4 is transmitted to the gate of the eleventh NMOS transistor (MN11) in the second current discharge module (07) through the channel of the fourth NMOS transistor (MN4) by the second turn-off enable signal (Vctrl2), enabling the eleventh NMOS transistor (MN11) to establish a channel;
[0034] A method for, during the pre-turn-off stage of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled, enabling the fifth NMOS transistor (MN5) to establish a channel under the influence of the voltage at node net2. At the same time, the voltage at node net2 is transmitted to node net5 through the second diode (D2), and the voltage at node net5 is pulled down to node net6 through voltage division by the fourth resistor (R4) and the fifth resistor (R5) and transmitted to the gate of the tenth NMOS transistor (MN10) in the second current discharge module (07), enabling the tenth NMOS transistor (MN10) to establish a channel;
[0035] A method for controlling the gate voltage of the tenth NMOS transistor (MN10) in node net6 and the second current discharge module (07) during the turn-off stage of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled, which is controlled by the third turn-off enable signal (Vctrl3) and the fourth turn-off enable signal (Vctrl4);
[0036] A method for enabling the eighth NMOS transistor (MN8) and the ninth NMOS transistor (MN9) to establish channels during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled, which is controlled by the fifth turn-off enable signal (Vctrl5) and the sixth turn-off enable signal (Vctrl6), thereby discharging current through port Vgate;

[0038] Furthermore, the first resistor (R1), the second resistor (R2), and the first capacitor (C1) in the parameter configuration module (02) are configured according to the parasitic parameters of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled. The voltage waveforms of node net2 and node net6 in the current mirror module (01) are specifically represented as follows:
[0039] During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled, when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled is higher than the Miller plateau (Vmiller), the voltage of node net2 appears as a voltage peak;
[0040] During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled, the voltage of node net6 is synchronous with the voltage of node net2. When the gate voltage of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled is higher than the Miller plateau (Vmiller), the voltage of node net6 appears as a voltage peak.
[0041] Further, the voltage waveform of node net6 is specifically represented as follows: During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) drops to the threshold voltage (Vth), the third turn-off enable signal (Vctrl3) and the fourth turn-off enable signal (Vctrl4) in the control module (05) synchronously control the sixth NMOS transistor (MN6) and the seventh NMOS transistor (MN7) to turn on, pulling up the voltage of node net6. At this time, the voltage of node net6 is pulled up and remains unchanged.
[0042] Further, the voltage waveform at the output terminal (Vgate) during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is specifically represented as follows:
[0043] First stage: When the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is higher than the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage, the gate voltage rapidly drops to the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage;
[0044] Second stage: When the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is at the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage, the gate voltage remains at the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage;
[0045] Third stage: When the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is lower than the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage but higher than the threshold voltage (Vth), the gate voltage slowly decreases linearly;
[0046] Fourth stage: When the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is lower than the threshold voltage (Vth), the gate voltage rapidly drops to zero.
[0047] Further, during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), the gate voltage waveform of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is affected by the resistance and capacitance values of the first resistor (R1), the second resistor (R2), and the first capacitor (C1) in the parameter configuration module (02). The specific representation is as follows:
[0048] When the resistance and capacitance values of the second resistor (R2) and the first capacitor (C1) remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the first resistor (R1), the slower the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) drops during the stage higher than the Miller plateau (Vmiller), that is, the smaller the absolute value of the slope of the gate voltage drop in this stage, and the longer the gate voltage stays at the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage;
[0049] When the resistance and capacitance values of the first resistor (R1) and the first capacitor (C1) remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the second resistor (R2), the shorter the time for the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) to be lower than the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage. As a result, the turn-off time of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is shorter.
[0050] When the resistance values of the first capacitor (R1) and the second resistor (R2) remain unchanged, the smaller the capacitance value of the first capacitor (C1), the slower the decline of the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) during the stage higher than the Miller plateau (Vmiller), that is, the smaller the absolute value of the slope of the gate voltage decline during this stage.
[0051] Furthermore, during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), the waveforms of the drain-source current and drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) are specifically represented as follows:
[0052] When the resistance and capacitance values of the second resistor (R2) and the first capacitor (C1) remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the first resistor (R1), the slope of the drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) remains unchanged, and the absolute value of the slope of the drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) is larger;
[0053] When the resistance and capacitance values of the first resistor (R1) and the first capacitor (C1) remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the second resistor (R2), the smaller the slope of the drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), and the smaller the absolute value of the slope of the drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09);
[0054] When the resistance values of the first capacitor (R1) and the second resistor (R2) remain unchanged, the smaller the capacitance value of the first capacitor (C1), the smaller the slope of the drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), and the smaller the absolute value of the slope of the drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09).
[0055] Furthermore, during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), the drive circuit does not need to introduce the drain-source side information of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), and only uses the change characteristics of the transconductance capacitance of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) to regulate the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09), and finally completes the regulation of the drain-source voltage and current trajectories of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09); the drive circuit separately regulates the slopes of the drain-source voltage and drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled (09) through the resistance and capacitance parameters in the parameter configuration module.
[0056] Beneficial effects: From the perspective of the power MOSFET turn-off mechanism, the present invention proposes a controllable wide-adaptation MOSFET turn-off gate drive circuit and a drive method, which continuously and finely regulate the gate voltage during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET, and realize the individual and fine regulation of the drain-source voltage and current trajectories during the turn-off process, so as to achieve the purpose of the power MOSFET having low voltage overshoot and low turn-off loss during the turn-off process, and realize the full-limited application of the power MOSFET. At the same time, the controllable wide-adaptation MOSFET turn-off gate drive circuit and drive method proposed by the present invention can adjust and configure parameters according to the parasitic parameters of the power MOSFET to adapt to power MOSFETs with different parasitic parameters and improve the applicability. In addition, the controllable wide-adaptation MOSFET turn-off gate drive circuit and drive method proposed by the present invention can realize the individual regulation of the drain-source voltage and drain-source current trajectories only by controlling the gate of the power MOSFET, without introducing high-voltage information on the drain-source side, reducing the insulation requirements and increasing the power density.
[0057] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0058] 1. During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, by continuously and finely controlling the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled, the individual and fine regulation of the drain-source voltage and current trajectories of the power MOSFET to be controlled is realized, so that the power MOSFET has the characteristics of low voltage overshoot and low turn-off loss during the turn-off process, and the full-limited application of the power MOSFET is realized;
[0059] 2. By matching the parasitic parameters of the power MOSFET to be controlled through the parameter configuration module, the applicability of the circuit is improved;
[0060] 3. Avoid the introduction of high-voltage information on the drain-source side of the power MOSFET to be controlled, reduce the insulation requirements and increase the power density.
[0061] The present invention solves the problems that the existing drive circuit cannot continuously and finely regulate the gate voltage during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET device, cannot individually and finely regulate the drain-source voltage and current trajectories of the power MOSFET, it is difficult to simultaneously meet the goals of low voltage overshoot and low turn-off loss during the turn-off process, it is difficult to realize the full-limited application of the power MOSFET, and it is difficult to meet the high power density requirements of power electronic devices.

[0083] During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, the functions of the above-mentioned modules are specifically manifested as follows:
[0084] The current mirror module is used to copy the path current formed by it and the parameter configuration module to the path formed with the maintenance module. When the first turn-off enable signal Vctrl1 in the parameter configuration module is set high, the potentials of nodes net1 and net2 in the current mirror module are pulled high.
[0085] The parameter configuration module is used to control the current-carrying capacity of the branch where the first NMOS transistor is located according to the first turn-off enable signal Vctrl1 during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled; in the pre-turn-off stage, the first turn-off enable signal Vctrl1 is set high, and the first NMOS transistor establishes a channel. At this time, the potential of node net1 in the current mirror module is pulled up, synchronously affecting the potential of node net2. At this time, the voltage waveform of node net2 is: during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled is higher than the Miller plateau Vmiller stage, the voltage of node net2 presents a voltage peak.
[0086] The conduction module is used to conduct the voltage of node net2 in the node current mirror module to node net5, and use the fourth resistor and the fifth resistor to divide the voltage to pull down the potential of node net5, and the lowered potential is output from node net6 to the gate of the tenth NMOS tube in the second leakage module. Among them, the voltage waveform of node net6 is: during the shutdown process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled is higher than the Miller platform Vmiller stage, the voltage of node net6 presents a voltage peak, following the voltage waveform of node net2 in the current mirror module, such as Figure 3 shown.
[0087] The control module is used to control the sixth NMOS tube and the seventh NMOS tube to establish a channel according to the third shutdown enable signal Vctrl3 and the fourth shutdown enable signal Vctrl4. The control module is internally connected to the conduction module at the node net6, and the potential of the node net6 is changed according to the input third shutdown enable signal and the fourth shutdown enable signal. The voltage waveform of the node net6 connected to it is: during the shutdown process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled drops to the threshold voltage Vth, the third shutdown enable and the fourth shutdown enable are set high at the same time. At this time, the sixth NMOS tube and the seventh NMOS tube establish a channel, so that the potential of the node net6 is pulled up again and remains unchanged, and the tenth NMOS tube in the second leakage module is driven to establish a channel so that it obtains the flow capacity, such as Figure 3 shown.
[0088] The maintenance module is used for, during the shutdown process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, when the potential of the node net2 in the current mirror module is pulled high, the potential of the node net3 is also pulled high, so that the third NMOS tube establishes a channel, and then the potential of the node net4 is pulled high by using the third NMOS tube and the third resistor R3 path, so that the second NMOS tube establishes a channel. Thus, during the shutdown process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, the maintenance module always has a voltage value at the node net4, and transmits the voltage of the node net4 to the gate of the eleventh NMOS tube in the second leakage module according to the second shutdown enable signal, so that the eleventh NMOS tube always maintains the channel establishment state during the shutdown process of the power MOSFET to be controlled.
[0089] The first current discharge module is used to control the eighth NMOS transistor and the ninth NMOS transistor to establish a channel according to the fifth turn-off enable signal Vctrl5 and the sixth turn-off enable signal Vctrl6, so that the lines where the eighth NMOS transistor and the ninth NMOS transistor are located obtain the current-carrying ability; the first current discharge module is connected to the second current discharge module at the output terminal Vgate, and this module discharges current from the output terminal Vgate. Specifically, during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, at the beginning of the turn-off process, the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled has not dropped yet, and the fifth turn-off enable signal and the sixth turn-off enable signal are both set high. At this time, the first current discharge module obtains the current-carrying ability and discharges current from the gate of the power MOSFET to be controlled through the output terminal Vgate; after the turn-off process ends, the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled will be zero, and the fifth turn-off enable signal and the sixth turn-off enable signal are both set low. At this time, the first current discharge module loses the current-carrying ability and stops discharging current through the output terminal Vgate.
[0090] As Figure 5 shown, during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, the waveform of its gate voltage is specifically shown as:
[0091] The first stage: when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled is higher than the Miller plateau Vmiller voltage, the gate voltage rapidly drops to the Miller plateau voltage;
[0092] The second stage: when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled is at the Miller plateau Vmiller voltage, the gate voltage remains at the Miller plateau voltage;
[0093] The third stage: when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled is lower than the Miller plateau Vmiller voltage but higher than the threshold voltage Vth, the gate voltage slowly drops linearly;
[0094] The fourth stage: when the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled is lower than the threshold voltage Vth, the gate voltage rapidly drops to zero.
[0095] Furthermore, the values of the first resistor, the second resistor, and the first capacitor inside the parameter configuration module can be configured according to the parasitic parameters of the power MOSFET to be controlled; during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled, the internal resistance and capacitance values of the parameter configuration module have an impact on the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled. Specifically,
[0096] When the resistance and capacitance values of the second resistor R2 and the first capacitor C1 remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the first resistor R1, the slower the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled drops in the stage higher than the Miller plateau Vmiller, that is, the smaller the absolute value of the slope of the gate voltage drop in this stage, and the longer the gate voltage stays at the Miller plateau Vmiller voltage. AsFigure 6 as shown;
[0097] When the resistance and capacitance values of the first resistor R1 and the first capacitor C1 remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the second resistor R2, the shorter the time for the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled to be lower than the Miller plateau (Vmiller) voltage. As a result, the turn-off time of the power MOSFET to be controlled is shorter, as Figure 7 shown;
[0098] When the resistance values of the first capacitor R1 and the second resistor R2 remain unchanged, the smaller the capacitance value of the first capacitor C1, the slower the drop of the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled during the stage higher than the Miller plateau (Vmiller), that is, the smaller the absolute value of the slope of the gate voltage drop during this stage, as Figure 8 shown.
[0099] During the turn-off process of the power MOSFET to be controlled by the adjustable wide-adaptation MOSFET turn-off gate drive circuit, the drain-source current and drain-source voltage waveforms of the power MOSFET to be controlled are affected by the internal parameter values of the parameter configuration module. Specifically, it is manifested as:
[0100] When the resistance and capacitance values of the second resistor R2 and the first capacitor C1 remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the first resistor R1, the slope of the drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled remains unchanged, and the absolute value of the slope of the drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled is larger, as Figure 9 shown;
[0101] When the resistance and capacitance values of the first resistor R1 and the first capacitor C1 remain unchanged, the larger the resistance value of the second resistor R2, the smaller the slope of the drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled, and the absolute value of the slope of the drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled is smaller, as Figure 10 shown;
[0102] When the resistance values of the first capacitor R1 and the second resistor R2 remain unchanged, the smaller the capacitance value of the first capacitor C1, the smaller the slope of the drain-source voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled, and the absolute value of the slope of the drain-source current of the power MOSFET to be controlled is smaller, as Figure 11 shown.
[0103] In the present invention, it is stated that "during the turn-off process of the power MOSFET (09) to be controlled, the drive circuit does not need to introduce the drain-source side information of the power MOSFET (09)". The power MOSFET is divided into a gate, a drain, and a source. Among them, the gate-source side bears the control voltage, and the drain-source side bears the power voltage, that is, the gate-source side is at low voltage and the drain-source side is at high voltage. The circuits are all connected to the gate, that is, the regulation is carried out on the low-voltage side;
[0104] The present invention provides a MOSFET turn-off gate drive circuit with adjustable wide adaptability, which is mainly applied to the turn-off drive of power MOSFET devices in power electronic devices. The circuit is designed without introducing the drain-source side information of the power MOSFET to be controlled. Only by utilizing the variation characteristics of the transconductance capacitance of the power MOSFET during the turn-off process, through continuous and fine regulation of the gate voltage of the power MOSFET to be controlled, separate fine regulation of the drain-source side voltage and current trajectories is achieved, and optimization is carried out between the turn-off loss and voltage overshoot, so as to achieve the goals of low voltage overshoot and low turn-off loss of the power MOSFET during the turn-off process, and realize the full limit application of the power MOSFET. At the same time, since the drain-source side information of the power MOSFET to be controlled is not introduced, the insulation requirements and circuit complexity are reduced, the power density is increased, and the high power density requirements of power electronic devices are met.

In addition, various modifications can be made to the present invention for specific situations or circumstances without departing from the scope of the present invention.
